I don’t think life will get back to normal for at least 5 to 7 years. And even with mass vaccination, or herd immunity, you still need to wear a mask in public

I don’t think life will get back to normal for at least 5 to 7 years.
And even with mass vaccination, or herd immunity, you still need to wear a mask in public. Or in the office. Or when you’re in a small meeting room, crammed full of people.
It only takes one sick person, and the virus will spread like wildfire like the flu. The vaccine only protects you from the deadliest of results, but you can still get sick and contagious.
And with news of all the mutations, 4 of them now, that I think we are seeing a new normal with remote work.
- peteretep 6y ago> I don’t think life will get back to normal for at least 5 to 7 years. I'm in the south of Thailand. We've not had a case in some months where I am, and Thailand had managed to get down to zero cases before some infected people walked back over the border. Pretty confident they're going to get back down to zero cases here again. Life is ... pretty much back to normal? There are some situations where you need to wear a mask -- many stores will require it (+ a temperature check) and on public transport, but people are back in restaurants without masks, people are back in offices without masks. It's back to normal + people always have a mask on them for the situations when they need one. Led to believe this is pretty much the same situation in Oz and NZ too.
